Sonny Boy Williamson I - Decoration Day No. 2 lyrics

Peoples, I had a woman She was nice a-lovin' kind to me in ev'ryway Peoples, I had a woman She was nice a-lovin' kind to me in ev'ryway Lord, but she died an left me And so I have the blues on ev'ry Decoration Day now Lord, as I was standin' around her bed These are the last words my baby had to say now Lord, as I was standin' around her bed These is the last words my baby had to say now She said, 'Sonny Boy I want you to bring me some flowers On-a ev'ry Decoration Day' So sorry to see her leave I just hate to see my Lord, take away now So sorry see her leave I just hate to see my Lord, take away Now that's why you hear my sing the blues I sing 'em on ev'ry Decoration Day Ain't we havin' a good time, now? Missed her just like the flower that comes in May Ain't we havin' a good time, now? Just a-like the flower that comes in May Now I'll always remember I won't never fo'get Decoration Day now.
